Australia is a company built on the exploitation of finite natural resources, whether it be logging, mining or farming. THE LAST VALLEY explores the boom and bust cycle of Australian primary industries in the context of East Gippsland timber and shows the consequences for the local community of Orbost when the resources become scarce and are finally exhausted.
A Solomon Islands community struggles with some unexpected consequences of a logging operation. The men of Rendova Island embrace the chance to be part of the modern economy; but the women are concerned for the forests and traditions that sustain their families. As Rendova's forest rapidly disappears, the loggers set their sights on a deserted island held sacred by the villagers. Through evocative archival images, SINCE THE COMPANY CAME questions the ongoing legacy of colonial attitudes to land and people.
